Nothing is wrong with you because you are dissatisfied with your life. Dissatisfaction can be very beneficial to the creative process. It's usually the starting point for something new. Being dissatisfied with an area of your life doesn't necessarily mean you're an unhappy person. I am very happy with my life – – – but there are several areas with which I am dissatisfied.
Someone said the greatest temptation in life is to settle for less than what you really want. I counseled a woman once who told me the monent she was walking down the aisle to get married, she knew she had settled for less than what she wanted in a mate. Predictably, her marriage didn't last long.
Whenever we accept less than what we really want, that nagging voice of truth never seems to shut up! Week after week, month after month, it gets louder and louder until finally it screams in your head: "GET OUT!"
Here are some questions to ask yourself:
* What is your dissatisfaction?
* What area of your life have you accepted less than what you really want?
* What problem keeps repeating itself over and over again?
* What truth do you already know about your life, but keep trying to pretend it isn't real?
Many people sit with their dissatisfaction and quietly hope things will change on their own. What most people don't realize is that their dissatisfaction is really a message to take action, not sit around in misery. We're not supposed to be happy with less! We live in a universe filled with infinite possibilities, so MORE is always available to us.
That's why we grow so dissatisfied when our relationships aren't growing, our jobs aren't rewarding and our income stays the same. Something in us knows we're supposed to be happy, rich and in love!
You will never get yourself to be happy with less than what you really want from life. You were designed by your Creator to dream great dreams and accomplish wonderful things. Spirit is calling you into a life of greatness – but sometimes (for whatever reason) some of us have to go through the dark before we can find the light.
